GAC Malaysia and Uminaca Collaborate to Boost East Malaysia Logistics

GAC Malaysia has joined forces with Syarikat Uminaca Sdn Bhd to enhance project logistics services in East Malaysia, supporting development initiatives in Sarawak and Sabah.

This partnership aims to expand comprehensive logistics solutions in East Malaysia, particularly in the energy sector. Notable projects include the Lang Lebah offshore gas field, Petros projects, and the Sarawak Metro Autonomous Rail Transit (ART) project in Sarawak, as well as oil and gas facilities development at the Sipitang Oil and Gas Industrial Park (SOGIP) in Sabah.

GAC and Uminaca offer ship management, logistics, agency, and technical services to regional clients. By leveraging Uminaca’s local expertise and GAC’s international reach, the joint venture aims to deliver competitive shipping, logistics, and marine services in East Malaysia.

Awang Azrulyani, Director of Uminaca, sees the partnership as a milestone, positioning Uminaca to expand its reach beyond East Malaysia and offer comprehensive marine and logistics solutions globally.

This venture aligns with GAC’s expansion strategy in Malaysia and the region. Last year, GAC inaugurated its 14th office in Kota Kinabalu, with plans for additional offices in Kuantan and Yan, reflecting Malaysia’s growing importance in global trade and energy markets.
